North Coast Music Festival Ready For Fifth Anniversary

In this article:

Do you live in Chicago or will you be in Chicago for Labor Day Weekend? If so, you should pick up some tickets to the North Coast Music Festival. Taking place at Union Park, the festival will be celebrating its fifth anniversary by bringing headliners (and NCMF alum) Bassnectar, STS9, Snoop Dogg, and Kid Cudi to their stages. There’s something for everyone during this electronic fest, with EDM artists like Dadalife and Keys n Krates and pop rock bands Future Islands and Little Dragon all set to take the stage. Hip-hop fans will have fun, too, with the additions of Action Bronson and the always-entertaining Riff Raff. Tickets for the festival are on sale now, with a three-day pass setting you back $149. Single-day passes will be available soon, but pricing for those has not yet been announced.

This year’s festival brings a few changes to the way they normally do things. This time around, organizers have decided to expand their reach in the park, giving festival-goers more room to move around and listen to their tunes, and they’ve opted to change around the stage placements for a fresher feel. Good? Bad? We’ll have to see, but with a lineup like that, we’re sure things will be perfectly peachy to say goodbye to summer.
